French Onion Soup

1. 1

   In a large pot, saute onions and butter until onions are lightly brown and caramelized, about 10-15 minutes. Add beef broth, garlic powder, dried thyme, bay leaf, salt and pepper. Stir to combine. Bring mixture to a boil, then cover and let simmer for 15-20 minutes.

2. 2

   About 10 minutes before soup is done, place bread slices on a baking sheet and broil on medium heat for 2-3 minutes, or until tops are golden brown. Remove from oven and set aside. Keep broiler on medium heat.

3. 3

   Once soup has simmered, pour into oven-safe bowls. Place 1 slice of bread into each bowl and then top with shredded cheese (I used about 1/4 cup cheese per bowl). Place back into the oven and broil on medium heat until cheese is fully melted, about 4-5 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes.

4. 4

   Serve immediately. Enjoy!
